Mixed base carbon bands perform well in solvent resistance and are generally superior to pure wax based carbon bands. The mixed base carbon strip combines the advantages of wax - and resin-based carbon strips with higher wear resistance, heat resistance and chemical solvent resistance. The following is a detailed analysis of the solvent resistance of the mixed base carbon strip:


First, definition and importance of solvent resistance

Solvent resistance refers to the ability of the carbon strip to keep the printed content from falling off and not blurring when it comes into contact with various chemical solvents (such as gasoline, oil, alcohol, rain, etc.). In practical application scenarios such as logistics and circulation links, industrial production environment, carbon belt is likely to encounter various chemical solvents, so solvent resistance is one of the important indicators to evaluate the performance of carbon belt.

Second, the solvent resistance

Mixed base carbon strip usually has higher solvent resistance because it contains a certain amount of resin components. The resin based carbon strip itself is known for its excellent scratch resistance, high temperature resistance, solvent resistance and other properties, and the mixed base carbon strip combines the advantages of wax and resin bases to further improve solvent resistance. This means that when the mixed base carbon strip comes into contact with the chemical solvent, it can maintain the clarity and integrity of the printed content, and is not easy to fall off or blur.

Third, performance in practical applications

In practical applications, the mixed base carbon strip shows excellent performance in applications where solvent resistance is required. For example, in logistics and circulation, labels and bills are likely to come into contact with a variety of chemical solvents (such as residues on packaging materials, rainwater, etc.), and the mixed base carbon strip ensures that the printed content remains legible when exposed to these solvents. In addition, mixed base carbon strips are also widely used in industrial fields and other applications where solvent resistance is required.

Fourth, different brands and models of mixed base carbon belt

There are many brands and models of mixed base carbon strips on the market, and their solvent resistance may vary depending on the specific formulation and manufacturing process. But in general, most of the mixed base carbon bands are able to perform well in terms of solvent resistance. For example, the mixed base carbon bands produced by some well-known brands such as Zebra, Ricoh, etc., usually have a high level of performance in terms of solvent resistance.

Fifth, suggestions for use

In order to ensure that the solvent resistance of the mixed base carbon strip is fully developed, it is recommended to pay attention to the following points when using:

1.Select the right type of carbon strip: Select the right type of mixed base carbon strip according to the specific printing needs and use environment.

2.Proper storage and use of the carbon strip: Avoid exposing the carbon strip to high temperatures, humidity or direct sunlight, so as not to affect its solvent resistance. At the same time, ensure the cleanliness of the printer and print head when using the carbon strip to avoid the impact of impurities on the performance of the carbon strip.


In summary, mixed base carbon bands perform well in solvent resistance and are generally superior to pure wax based carbon bands. In practical applications, the mixed base carbon strip can meet a variety of printing needs that require solvent resistance.
